WALKTHROUGH MENU

General Tips

When you click the brown book, “How to be a detective,” you can see tips to play this game.

In this game, you will be able to sneak around the halls of the dorm after curfew. You will know you’ve found a hiding place when you see the sneak cursor.

You will also have a cell phone with lots of features: phone, camera, clock, messages, and settings. Each mode can be accessed by selecting its icon from the main menu.

You can move your cursor around on the screen and click when an arrow pointing in the direction you want to go appears. This will get you from one place to another.

When your cursor is a magnifying glass, you can scan the surroundings for clues. When it turns red, there is clue that you can interact with. Some clues, like the ones written in books, do not turn red at all.

When your magnifying glass turns into a question mark, you can talk to someone.

When it becomes a hand, you can use it to open and close things, pick up objects, and move things around.

When you click on an object with the hand cursor, that object is added to your inventory.

When you click on the inventory icon at the bottom of the screen, you can see what’s in your inventory.

When you click on the notebook icon next to the inventory icon, you can see journal. It contains all the entries on that topic your character has made up to that point in the game.

When you click on the clipboard icon, if you are a junior detective, you will see a list of what you need to do.

You can get people to talk to you by clicking on the question mark on a person. While you have a conversation, your responses are always blue in the bottom of the screen.

From the main menu, you can adjust a variety of settings, like voice, effects and music volume, matte color, screen mode, closed-captioning, and text size from the option menu.

As always you can call your friends to get help.

If at any point you are stuck, talk to all the girls again.
